Inheriting the family estate after his father's death, he will not get the rest of his inheritance until he is married.

The Beast and His Tamer
Well, this wasn't exactly what Sebastian thought he was going to have to deal with when he came to this forest. He was looking for a werebear that had lost its mind somewhere out here. But now he seemed to stumble upon a werewolf instead. He must have been in really bad shape to be that far gone. He was glad that he had found the right song to sooth and calm him. Now that the beast's rage was gone, it was slowly transforming into a human form. He hadn't really dealt with werewolves that much. They usually knew how to handle themselves and conduct themselves accordingly with society. It made this one all the stranger of an experience. "It's okay, buddy," he pet its head. "You're alright now. Rest your head and know that you are safe." The beast's head was resting on his lap as he hummed softly at it. Petting ever so gently right between his ears, he watched as the beast relaxed, slowly turning into the human form that was connected to it. The face took the longest to shift, but the man looked so peaceful when Sebastian was able to see it. And then he saw the rest of the man that was laying partly on top of him. Oh no. He forgot that they aren't clothed when they shifted. A blush came to his cheeks as he forced his eyes to stay on the man's face. Dammit all. Why did this beast have to be so handsome? * Sebastian Julien Jean Dubois was a part of the most famous family of beast tamers in the entire European and Asian continent. From Dragons to demons, and all the in betweens, he's tamed them all. But when his first trip to America lands him in a forest with a beserk werewolf, Sebastian now finds himself in the middle of a mystery. Werewolves don't normally go beserk. And this one was an Alpha of a small pack, which meant that he was already really strong. Will he be able to figure out what's going on in this strange forest? More challenging than that: Will he be able to do it without falling for the handsome beast? * Completed! 6/13/2022Completa

"I have always thought that the big bad wolf is angry because he is lonely," I teased, Seff threw his bow and arrow on the ground. I had incensed him. His obsidian black eyes threatened me; told me to stop before it was too late. "I am a dangerous man, I'm not even a man. I am a beast with a human mind. I am danger incarnated." He said, his voice gruff and I laughed. "I always thought that the poor wolf deserved a strong dangerous woman by his side. Come on Wolfie. We all know that behind every dangerous man is an even more dangerous woman. We can set this village on its back... Don't you want that?" Seff smiled, his razor sharp canines glinting in the moonlight.Completa

Beauty and the Beast
We all know the story of Beauty and the Beast. This story follows the outline of the traditional story pretty well with some changes to make it seems more real, more intense, and not such a fairytale. There's a Mansion secluded in the thick forest south of town that Isabelle happened to run into one very stormy night. Denied help from the Master, but aided by the servants, she finds her life intertwined with theirs and there's nothing she can do to stop it. The Master is horrible - beastly. He's powerful, and manages to put Isabelle under a spell of his own. A story of two people learning about themselves by falling in love with the other. Here's my version of Beauty and the Beast.Completa
~Too many options~ (Black butler x Gender neutral Neko reader)
